Arsene Wenger was caught out ahead of the recent Euro 2016 fixture between Croatia and Turkey when mistaking the Vatreni's team doctor for new Paris Saint-Germain boss Unai Emery.
The Arsenal manager, working pitchside in Paris as a pundit on French TV for the group-stage match, thought that he had spotted Emery but was badly mistaken.
It turned out that a red-faced Wenger asked physio in question Tomaslav Madzar how his ongoing negotiations with PSG were going, before quickly realising his error and backtracking.
"Wenger congratulated me on an excellent season and asked me if I had reached an agreement with PSG," Madzar, who also had a picture with the 66-year-old, told The Sun.

Former Real Madrid striker David Trezeguet, alongside Wenger in his role as a pundit, is said to have also made the same mistake.
